KICK ASS tunes of the decade that make you wanna say 'F*Ck YEAH!'
10. Muse: Knights of Cydonia- A pretty kick ass song, hence the fact it has made my Top 10 list, however, it would've gotten a higher rating if the vocals were sang by a Metal singer. But still, space cowboys are pretty awesome.
9. Franz Ferdinand: Take Me Out- A great song that manages to brilliantly to switch between two different rhythms repeatedly. Very Kick Ass.
8. Jet: Are You Gonna Be My Girl?- The kind of song that makes you want to drive a fast car down a desert highway. Decent amount of Kick Ass in this one
7. Children of Bodom: Rebel Yell- AWESOME cover of the Billy Idol classic. Heavy guitars and dirty vocals makes this song jizz of 'KickAss'.
6. Green Day: Jesus of Surburbia: Jesus of Surburbia/City of the Damned/ I Don't Care- One hell of a title, this three phased punk-rock masterpiece is super KICK ASS. The punk-rock equilavent of Bohemian Raphsody.
5. Metallica: End of the Line- The fact that its by Metallica speaks volumes on its own. It's Kick Ass, Nuff Said.
4. Red Hot Chili Peppers: Can't Stop- With a rolling intro and awesome riff this RHCP classic very much in the KICK ASS section of life.
3. Katy Perry: Hot 'n' Cold- A controversial entry and yet I don't give a camel's ass. This song is really groovy and I believe it is Kick Ass multiplied by three.
2. Ozzy Osbourne: Crazy Train- Sure this song was released in 1980 and this list is supposed to be about the current decade, but again, I'm bending the rules for this KICK-ASS-MOTHER-BITCH of a song.
1. The Darkness: I Believe in a Thing Called Love- And the most KICK ASS song of the decade, well you read the title, its The Darkness, deservedly. Kick Ass doesn't even begin to describe it, but it's video does.
Top 10 Movies of the Decade
The Top 10 Movies I reckon were either kickass or awesomeness.
10. Shaun of the Dead- The British movie that made killing zombies for survival funny. Killing Zombies with a shovel= Bad Ass
9. Star Wars Trilogy (Ep1-3)- Okay so its three movies, but Star Wars with CGI Yoda is definitely kick ass. The fact that Geroge Lucas manages to tell the story of Darth Vader and how he came to be and still make the viewers care about him is the reason why the trilogy makes the list.
8. LOTR Trilogy- I know its another trilogy but what the heck. 20 minutes of epic battle scenes is definitely a positive in my books.
7. Scary Movie- Notice how I only include the first one? The fact is Scary Movie 1 is probably the best one, not Date Movie, not Epic Movie, and definitely not Disaster movie. Scary Movie is a cult classic which pokes fun at quintessential horror movies.
6. Fight Club- Two words, FUCK YEAH! The title says it all, a club for men to fight and cause mayhem. Yeah I know it was released in 1999, but I am personally bending the rules for this movie.
5. Borat- A reporter from the East Bloc investigating America? Who would've thought of that? Sacha Baron Cohen's mockumentary on America (including the antics of Borat) is so funny and yet it exposes some of America's subtle flaws.
4. Matrix Trilogy- Okay so the first movie was released in 1999 but who cares? An alternate reality in which we're fighting machines, and the life we know is all a computer simulation? The number of times this trilogy mindfucks you is why it makes No. 4.
3. Black Hawk Down- Stunning visuals at times and amateur camera work at others, mixed in with helicopters and big guns and you have yourself one kick ass mother of a movie.
2. Harry Potter Series- So what if some of the movies aren't so accurate, the fact that the first movie remains as the 5th highest grossing film of all time is enough for it to make my list at No. 2.
1. The Dark Knight- A film with so much emotional out pour surrounding it (i.e. Heath Ledger's untimely death right before release) and yet still delivers dramatically and visually. Despite being just released 2008, the film has grossed more than a billion dollars.
10. Shaun of the Dead- The British movie that made killing zombies for survival funny. Killing Zombies with a shovel= Bad Ass
9. Star Wars Trilogy (Ep1-3)- Okay so its three movies, but Star Wars with CGI Yoda is definitely kick ass. The fact that Geroge Lucas manages to tell the story of Darth Vader and how he came to be and still make the viewers care about him is the reason why the trilogy makes the list.

Top 10 Gadgets of the decade
Screw the 90's and their alleged technological revolution, I say the 00's defeats all other decades technologically!
10. DVD + DVD Player- Since the arrival of the DVD at the turn of the century, playing your favourite movies now means placing a disc onto a slick shiny tray which would retract into an even slicker/ shinier player and watching the movie in unrivaled quality.
9. Digital Cameras- Although the digital camera was invented in the 1990s, its safe to to say that the digital camera really took off in the 00's. Gone are the days of waiting a few days for Kodak to develop your photos, now its simply a button away from viewing the photo you just took, and a click away from sending it to a friend.
8. Sat Navs- The Sat-Nav directly influenced the extinction of folded paper maps, no more will there be lost drivers. Technology that used to be restricted to the military et al is now available to the consumer. Garmin and Tom Tom are just a few of the big names that have forced their way onto your dashboards.
7. Apple iphone- The gadget that single handedly begin the touch screen era, since its release in 2007, other phones and mp3 players have included the touch screen feature to their product.
6. Blackberry- One of the first phones to have the feature of email, and a mini keyboard. This little bad boy is a must for any businessman on the go.
5. Sony Playstation 2- The best selling game console of the decade (138 million as of August 2009), the sequel to the Playstation has managed to out sell and out last competitors such as the XBOX and the GameCube.
4. Nintendo Wii- Continuing the trend of game consoles, Nintendo's release of the movement sensory based game console is currently leading sales in the current generation of game consoles at 56 million units.
3.Netbook- The super light and super small laptop at rock bottom prices seemed too good to be true. But its not, the netbook exceeds at performing simple PC tasks on the go.
2. USB Drive- The quickest and easier way to transfer and back up data between computers, the USB stick is constantly growing in size and has virtually wiped out the floppy disk.
1. Apple ipod- The gadget that popularized mp3 players and the mp3 format. Gone are the albums, and gone are the walkmans, the ipod enabled easy storage and listening of your music on the go.
